Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs designed for permanent installation into metal sheets as thin as 0.63 mm, providing flush female threads on the opposite side of the sheet. The BSO series features a closed-end barrel for structural integrity and a flush appearance. These standoffs are suitable for steel or aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 80 or less. The M3 thread size corresponds to a 3.5 mm minimum hole diameter and a 4.2 mm minimum distance to sheet edge. Installation requires a press fit into properly sized round holes.
These standoffs, which use the proven self-clinching design, install with a squeeze in properly sized round holes - and become permanently mounted in the thin sheet.
When blind-threaded types are used, outer sheet surfaces are not only flush, but closed as well.
If you require a standoff which we do not offer in this bulletin, please contact us. We will be happy to work with you to satisfy your special need.
